Ther Hunger Games Trilogy

  Well, you have probably heard about them by now. They are making a movie about these books. The main character is probably the most fiercest heriones I have ever read about. You probably know what books I'm talking about by now and if you don't, well... it's the Hunger Games trilogy.
  These books are just utterly amazing. When you are reading them,  it is almost like you are caught in a gigantic spider web and you can't get out. But in a way, you don't want to leave the web because it has been created so beautifully.
  All of the books will make you feel emotions that you have probably never felt while reading a book. I say this because Collins makes you feel like you are in the main characters shoes by the style of her writing. You can feel the pain that Katniss (main character) is in at times, you will feel the anger that she has toward the Games and you can feel the sadness in her when something terrible happens.
  Now, a little summary of the first book.
  When the world ended, North America was split into 13 parts. These parts were called districts. All the districts were ruled by the Capitol. They were all in peace. But then districts began to rebel against the Capitol. This started a full on war.
In the end, the Capitol won. Twelve of the districts were defeated, the 13th destroyed.
From that day forth, the Capitol had to keep them in line. Thus, creating the Hunger Games. A full on fight to the death between children ranging from 12-18 years old.
Seventy-four years after the Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen is thrown into the arena. But not because she was chosen, but because she volunteered for someone she loves.
Katniss can only promise that person one thing. That she will try to win.
 I will not go into any further detail because I don't want to give anything away.
 Read the Hunger Games. Trust me, you will finish the book and just lay there at night while your trying to fall asleep, thinking about the Hunger Games.
